Prepare a solution of 100 mL Genfarm Dimethoate per 100 mL water, inject 30-60 mL prepared solution per plant

*(See Critical Comments)

Banana Aphid Control must only be undertaken to plants following the use of glyphosate as directed for plant destruction.

Glyphosate and Genfarm Dimethoate treatments must be applied separately. Pseudostem: Inject prepared solutions

into pseudostem above the growing point. Inject plants over 1 metre tall at two points (glyphosate) and three points (Genfarm Dimethoate) around the stem. Suckers: Inject suckers up to 1 metre tall

at lower rate, at one point. Bunches: Where bunches are present,

spray the surface of the fruit with red marker dye. Inject once only with each treatment and leave plant to dry out before disturbing further.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS MIXING The product can be poured directly into the water in the vat with agitators in operation. If combining with another product, mix each product separately in a small quantity of water first before adding to the vat. APPLICATION BY DILUTE SPRAYING • Use a sprayer designed to apply high volumes of water up to the point of runoff and matched to the crop being sprayed. • Set up and operate the sprayer to achieve even coverage throughout the crop canopy. Apply sufficient water to cover the crop to the point of run-off. Avoid excessive run-off. • The required water volume may be determined by applying different test volumes, using different settings on the sprayer, from industry guidelines or expert advice. • Add the amount of product specified in the Directions for Use table for each 100 L of water. Spray to the point of run-off. • The required dilute spray volume will change and the sprayer set up and operation may also need to be changed, as the crop grows. APPLICATION BY CONCENTRATE SPRAYING • Use a sprayer designed and set up for concentrate spraying (that is a sprayer which applies water volumes less than those required to reach the point of run-off) and matched to the crop being sprayed. • Set up and operate the sprayer to achieve even coverage throughout the crop canopy using your chosen water volume. • Determine an appropriate dilute spray volume (See Dilute Spraying above) for the crop canopy. This is needed to calculate the concentrate mixing rate. • The mixing rate for concentrate spraying can then be calculated in the following way: EXAMPLE ONLY (i) Dilute spray volume as determined above: For example 1500 L/ha (ii) Your chosen concentrate spray volume: For example 500 L/ha (iii) The concentration factor in this example is: 3 X (i.e. 1500 L ÷ 500 L = 3) (iv) If the dilute label rate is 15 mL/100 L, then the concentrate rate becomes 3 x 15 that is 45 mL/ 100 L of concentrate spray.


• The chosen spray volume, amount of product per 100 L of water, and the sprayer set up and operation may need to be changed as the crop grows. • For further information on concentrate spraying, users are advised to consult relevant industry guidelines, undertake appropriate competency training and follow industry Best Practices. REDLEGGED EARTH MITE Redlegged Earth Mite (RLEM) is an introduced pasture and crop pest in southern Australia. RLEM is active in the cool wet months from May to November. During the 6 hotter months of the year RLEM avoid the hot dry conditions by developing a resting stage which is impervious to heat and drought. They do this by producing diapause (over-summering) eggs in Spring that remain on the soil surface. Very high numbers of over-summering eggs can be found on the soil surface, ready to emerge in the following Autumn, providing a threat to the germinating pasture or crop. The use of higher application rates in cereals and pasture after Autumn rains when mites emerge can provide extended periods of control. A system such as Timerite™ can also be used to estimate the optimum timing for a Spring spray to reduce egg-laying adult mite numbers and hence the damage to pasture and crops the following autumn when RLEM emerge from eggs. Specified varieties of drumhead cabbage Genfarm Dimethoate may be used on these varieties to be grown to maturity to be harvested as head cabbages

INSECTICIDE RESISTANCE WARNING GROUP 1B INSECTICIDE

For insect resistance management GENFARM DIMETHOATE INSECTICIDE is a Group 1B insecticide. Some naturally occurring insect biotypes resistant to GENFARM DIMETHOATE INSECTICIDE and other Group 1B insecticides may exist through normal genetic variability in any insect population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the insect population if GENFARM DIMETHOATE INSECTICIDE or other Group 1B insecticides are used repeatedly. The effectiveness of GENFARM DIMETHOATE INSECTICIDE on resistant individuals could be significantly reduced. Since occurrence of resistant individuals is difficult to detect prior to use, Landmark Operations Limited accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of GENFARM DIMETHOATE INSECTICIDE to control resistant insects. GENFARM DIMETHOATE INSECTICIDE may be subject to specific resistance management strategies. For further information contact your local supplier, Landmark representative or local agricultural department agronomist. PROTECTION OF LIVESTOCK Dangerous to bees. DO NOT spray any plants in flower while bees are actively foraging. PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT DO NOT contaminate streams, rivers, or waterways with the chemical or used containers. Dangerous to fish.


STORAGE AND DISPOSAL Store in the closed, original container in a dry, cool, well-ventilated area out of direct sunlight. Store in a locked room or place away from children, animals, food, feedstuffs, seed and fertilisers. Protect from direct sunlight and temperatures above 40°C. If storing for periods of more than 2-3 months avoid temperatures above 30°C. Triple-rinse containers before disposal. Add rinsings to spray tank. Do not dispose of undiluted chemicals on site. If recycling, replace cap and return clean containers to recycler or designated collection point. If not recycling, break, crush or puncture and deliver empty packaging to an approved waste management facility. If an approved waste management facility is not available, bury the empty packaging 500 mm below the surface in a disposal pit specifically marked and set up for this purpose, clear of waterways, desirable vegetation and tree roots, in compliance with relevant local, state or territory government regulations. Do not burn empty containers or product. For refillable containers (110L): Empty contents fully into application equipment. Close all valves and return to point of supply for refill or storage. DIP DISPOSAL: Add 3 kg either slaked, hydrated or quick lime per 1000 litres of dip solution in a separate vessel to the dipping tank. Leave that mix for one or two hours to neutralise the chemical component. The inactivated mix can then be poured into a trench or sprayed on grass. DO NOT flush to rivers, creeks or drain ways. SAFETY DIRECTIONS Product is poisonous if absorbed by skin contact or inhaled or swallowed. Repeated minor exposure may have a cumulative poisoning effect. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Do not inhale spray mist. When opening the container and preparing spray wear cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist, a washable hat, elbow-length PVC gloves, face shield and impervious footwear. When using the prepared spray wear cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist, a washable hat, elbow-length PVC gloves, impervious footwear and half facepiece respirator with combined dust and gas cartridge. If product on skin, immediately wash area with soap and water. After use and before eating, drinking or smoking, wash hands, arms and face thoroughly with soap and water. After each day’s use, wash gloves, face shield, respirator and if rubber wash with detergent and warm water, and contaminated clothing.
